Jm Halva Sunflower with Raisins, Ukrainian Sweet Confection 550g (1.2lb)
JM Halva Sunflower with Raisins is the classic Ukrainian sunflower-seed halva enriched with plump raisins — a confection of roasted sunflower paste, sugar, and honey that has been one of the most beloved sweet traditions of Eastern Slavic cuisine since at least the 18th century. Ukraine is one of the world's largest sunflower producers, and sunflower halva became a uniquely Ukrainian confection distinct from the sesame halva of the Middle East — earthier, nuttier, and with a satisfying crumble rather than a clean slice. The raisin addition is the most traditional Ukrainian variant, adding a natural fruity sweetness that cuts through the richness of the sunflower paste and makes the halva feel more dessert-like than snack. Break into rough pieces and serve alongside black tea, crumble over yogurt for a morning bowl, or set out a plate at the Slava table next to lokum and walnuts.
